There's also the synergy with Master of Waves Casting the Master with the Godhead out gives you a 1/1 and at least six 2/2s, and you need to kill both the Godhead and the Master in order to get rid of them. Nasty.

Really not sure how I missed that it's a 3/3 not a 2/2... That said, the Troll eating your graveyard is what makes it interesting to me, because it actually has a cost associated with it being a 5/5 trampler by T4. On the flip side, it also has more play against graveyard hate (since it has a...

It's a cool card... but I feel like it's going to cap out as a 4/4 trampler for {1}{G}{B} with a bunch of text on it unless the game goes really long? Compare to... Charnel Troll

Oops, yeah, it's not a common term or anything. It's named after 237 Magic. I also have a more recent take on the concept called Late Night Musings that I haven't posted about much. It's honestly a pretty fun design challenge, especially if you're also focused on making it still feel like...

Debating revisiting some older cubing stuff, and I'm curious if you guys think that the following cards can hang together at the same power level: Serra Avenger Guardian of the Great Door Bayou Groff Talara's Battalion (Thinking of doing a mini-reanimator theme in a 2-3-7 cube using...

Primeval Command

As a legitimate question... how long would it take for your players to notice the difference if you swapped the extra Doom Blade for a Cast Down? Both in the sense of "how much do people actually notice when you break singleton without telling them you're doing so?" and in the sense of "how much...

Is Cube generally being singleton really that novel anymore, though? For a lot of people, Commander is their main way of playing Magic, so having a format where you can run multiple copies of a card (wow amazing) would be the novelty.

To hop on this after the Simic Combine brought it back from the depths... has anyone built a duplicate microsealed pool? In other words, it'd be an itty-bitty "constructed format" to mess around with. ... As for the exile thing... maybe that's just a sign that you should avoid effects in...

Honestly, Loam + cycling lands feels really good as a card advantage engine.

Ancient Tomb City of Traitors

True... but that's assuming that a grind-y deck wants the depletion lands. They're for decks that want to be here for a good time, not a long time.

I've only really played with them in Pauper... but they're really nice if you've got a bunch of proliferate floating around or are trying to ramp into something. One of my favorite openings is T1 depletion land → T2 Island, Everflowing Chalice, Experimental Augury → five mana on T3.

I'm a little surprised that the depletion land aren't on there.

I gave your cube a test draft, and it really felt like most of the cards I got passed were intended for one specific archetype, with very few glue cards between them. There were a surprising number of times when I looked at a pack and went "wow, I don't want any of these cards" because the cards...

Needs more Spelunking I guess?

I stumbled on this thing recently. I really like the Blood damage rule (it's positively inspired) and the cheeky Divert/Ricochet Trap tech.

Utility land morph draft, maybe? (An incredibly stupid idea: say that face-down creatures are Commanders and let people draft some backgrounds.)

It does bonkers stuff if you've got any effect that increases the amount of damage you deal, works wonders with Wither and Infect, can bypass stuff like Phantom Tiger's damage prevention or shield counters...

This seems... pretty trivial to solve? Like, in a deck where you'd reasonably want the first half you're probably going to be solving this on the same turn as you play it.
